Florida 2008

We spent the past week on vacation in Florida and had a great time. My mom and Cameron's parents went with us and we really enjoyed getting to spend time with them. The weather and water were both beautiful and the view from our condo was awesome. Sydney loved being on the 16th floor! Sydney was a water bug and wanted to be in either the pool or ocean at all times. She was quite the socialite too...every time I looked up she had a new friend to play with. Carson wasn't really crazy about the ocean but did a lot of "Oooww"ing at the waves, planes, and boats. He didn't like walking in the sand but enjoyed sitting and playing in it. The pool was his favorite. He also did a little dancing on the table at Joe's Crab Shack. The whole place was watching and he was just precious. Sydney, Cameron, Lolli, and Pop went on a sailboat ride one evening and got to see dolphins. In case you're wondering why I didn't go, I get motion sick very easily...no boats for me!! Syd and Pop also rented a wave runner to ride in the ocean one day and she really enjoyed it too. Of course we played putt putt and Sydney and Pop rode go carts till midnight one night. We had a wonderful time and I can't wait to go back next year. Enjoy the pictures...there will be more to come when Lolli gets me the ones she took. I know you're wondering how there could ever be more, I'm just very indecisive. And I must add, we are so blessed to have two wonderful children. They were so good the whole trip and definitely kept us laughing. Carson swimming in his crab

I thought about getting Parker the crab but I got the turtle instead. How did it work out? I'm pretty pumped to try it out.

Looks like y'all had a great time. We are packing our bags for the beach now.

I just noticed that you guys call Patti "Mimi". Parker has been calling Heather Mimi out of nowhere. We had tried to get her to say other things but she is sticking to Mimi!
